First, my current setup:
P5Q-PRO, HD4780x2, Q9300 Yorkfield, 8GB Ram, 2 Samsung 2253BW.

What i want to do is hookup our HDTV to my system. I would assume that i would need to have a secondary GPU seeing as my current one is utilizing both monitors. Connect to the tv via HDMI or other? Will i need to worry about Sound issues as well?

Any help would be great.

Thanks!!!

If your current GPU doesn't have an extra display output, then you'll need to pick up another one for Crossfire for a third display. Needs to be the exact same type of card, preferably the same brand. Or, you could pick up a newer card that supports three displays simultaneously.

As far as how to connect it to the TV, that will depend on the card and TV.
